About this person
Many of her photographs are self-portraits, or include her family as subjects. Over the course of nearly five decades, her studio documented a rapidly growing Victoria, producing images that ranged from formal portraits to inventive staged compositions. She also photographed people using techniques that made them appear as statuary: on columns or posing as if they were made of stone.
